This Christmas we'll be seeing our supporters and their families come to Rodney Parade for matches against Llanelli Scarlets. Those serving in the 1st Queen's Dragoon Guards, however, will be based in Afghanistan over Christmas this year. Many of the men and women serving in this regiment are supporters of the Dragons and we at Rodney Parade feel that they deserve a little support back.
We will be collecting donations of sweets, toiletries, magazine and much more (see below for a full list). Our collection bins will be located in our Rodney Parade Superstore, in the Bisley Stand and we will be taking donations until Sunday, December 4th. Please, feel free to include any Good Luck messages and Christmas wishes.
In addition we have a special ticket offer for everyone in HM Forces. For the Dragons v. Glasgow Warriors game (Sunday, 4th December, 16:30, Rodney Parade) it's buy one ticket, get another one free. An ID will be required.
